I have no Idea why your receiving those low speeds!? I connect to both my PS3 and Laptop...and come to think of it I never tested the speeds on the laptop? I tested it on the PS3 in my house and the lowest speed I received was 2 mb down! I'll check my laptop later after work on the way home and report back in.
